Experiment in Horror

Experiência em Terror

A film by António de Andrade Albuquerque

Portugal, 1987, 73'

“A couple is on their honeymoon and, unexpectedly, the wife starts having visions and suspecting that someone is trying to harm her, but the husband doesn’t believe her. She will hover between reality and fantasy, and the honeymoon will end up becoming an experience of horror and fear. A tele-suspense film based on a short story by Dick Haskins, ‘The Precipice’, and starring amateur actors”.

This is the official presentation of this film, which comes from a detective series named after the author, “Dick Haskins”, and its most terrifying episode renamed “Experiment in Horror”, with a 15-minute addition to its length. This telefilm is a regressive experience to the beginnings of eighties television fiction in Portugal, a time when amateurism and total ignorance regarding the rules and codes of horror were not a problem.
